Title 3--The President in the territory of the Russian Federation. This notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress. GEORGE W. BUSH THE WHITE HOUSE, June 18, 2002. Notice of June 21, 2002 Continuation of the National Emergency With Respect to the Western Balkans On June 26, 2001, by Executive Order 13219, I declared a national emer- gency with respect to the Western Balkans pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.$.C. 1701-1706) to deal with the unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States constituted by the actions of persons engaged in, or assisting, sponsoring, or supporting, (i) extremist violence in the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, and elsewhere in the Western Balkans re- gion, or (ii) acts obstructing implementation of the Dayton Accords in Bos- nia or United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 of June 10, 1999, in Kosovo. Because the actions of these persons, which threaten the peace and international stabilization efforts in the Western Balkans, continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and for- eign policy of the United States, the national emergency declared on June 26, 2001, and the measures adopted on that date to deal with that emer- gency must continue in effect beyond June 26, 2002. Therefore, in accord- ance with section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act (50 U.$.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing for 1 year the national emergency with respect to the Western Balkans. This Notice shall be published in the Federal Register and transmitted to the Congress. GEORGE W. BUSH THE WHITE HOUSE, June 21, 2002.
